Hi
I had too much discharge and had a culture taken which showed strep A - so they gave me antibiotics. I’ve got one left and it feels worse then ever. I’ve just checked the ph level with the canestan test and that is suggesting I now have Bv. I’ve read that this is caused by antibiotics but also needs antibiotics for treatment. I’m wondering whether I need to give it a few days for the ph to settle or whether I should go back? I tried today but I can’t get an appointment.
any advice? I’ll try the go again tomorrow but in the case of not being able to get an appointment I wondered if I should be trying the gel things they sell in the chemist…..
thank you!

Speak to your local pharmacist, they should give you this on minor ailments no problem

Another vote for pharmacist - they deal with this kind of thing all the time
